​new york, i love you but you’re bringing me down (live at madison square garden) LCD Soundsystem

[Verse 1]
New York, I love you, but you're bringing me down
New York, I love you, but you're bringing me down
[pause]

Like a rat in a cage, pulling minimum wage
(That's very dramatic, Nancy)
New York, I love you, but you're bringing me down

[Verse 2]
New York, you're safer, but you're wasting my time
Our records all show you were filthy but fine
But the records all show when you opened the doors
To the cops who were bored once they'd run out of crime

[Verse 3]
New York, you're perfect, oh, please don't change a thing
Your mild billionaire mayor's now convinced he's a king
And all the boring collect, I mean no disrespect
In the neighborhood bars I'd once dreamt I would drink

[Verse 4]
New York, I love you, but you're freaking me out
New York, I love you, but you're freaking me out
Like a death in the hall that you hear through your wall
New York, I love you, but you're freaking me out
